Tottenham Hotspur have reportedly had a look at the 16-year-old striker, who was born in Leeds.
Conway was born in England but moved to America. He is yet to make his Major League Soccer debut, but did play 11 times for Atlanta United 2 in United Soccer League last season.
It appears however, that he may not get the chance to make his bow for the first-team. The Sun on Sunday (04/11; page 59) reports that Conway has been training with Spurs and has a growing list of admirers considering a move.
Although the teenager is yet to score for Atlanta’s second team, he did enjoy a remarkable final year in their academy side, scoring 26 goals in just 22 appearances last season.
It is not clear whether Spurs have any plans to follow up on their initial look at Conway – who was born on the day that Gus Poyet, Les Ferdinand and Teddy Sheringham helped Tottenham to a 3-2 win over Bolton Wanderers at White Hart Lane – but the growing interest suggests that he is one player to keep an eye on.
And having lost Reo Griffiths to Lyon over the summer, it would probably be no surprise if the Spurs academy chiefs were hoping to uncover a striker prospect who could fill the large void that Griffiths has left behind. Perhaps there is a chance that Conway could be someone they consider.
